Say, what would the data show if we measured cumulatively instead of pretending history began in the 1990s?

46% of s. Koreans support unification versus 26% against, the United States constitutes the single greatest obstacle to this & Korean soverignty
military presence in the country is pretty different from occupation
45 fucking years the US propped up, armed, and aided the dictatorial rule of conservative and military governments in South Korea. South Korea’s army still comes under US control in wartime, but sure 2 decades of just mostly corrupt “democracy” means they can just opt-out of US military garrisons. nothing bad would happen to the government that demands that, no matter how popular it is with the Korean people
if you’re not willing to concede anything
the US won’t concede basic demands like moving their troops off the border! fucking ridiculous equating Korea’s refusal to expose itself to attack with US bases thousands of miles away from the US
chronic food shortage stricken, ostracized
i wonder why a country under economic sanction from the US & its allies for decades might have economic trouble. i wonder why they’re rude to the US after the US bombed and murdered their people for 3 years & still occupy the southern half of their country
white folks who have had their brains rewired to justify the genocidal histories of their peoples always think genocide is the default, against all fucking evidence
can't blame Israel
i most certainly can. the instigator of violence always has the option to not continue and to make reparations. israelis are only targets for violence so long as they make life intolerable for palestinians.

in westminster parliamentary procedure, when there is a disagreement the two partisan groups get together and competitively row in a race up the Thames, winner taking the victorious position on the matter.
the article would imbue it with sentiments about government confidence and legitimacy. since it's France (ignore the enormous popular uprisings against this government in recent years) it's simple a 'political row' unrelated to the things people have been violently complaining about for years
i hope the lil sheep got real high :)
how is zelensky going to get a country that can veto any motion to give up its veto? it’s complete fantasy. i’m addressing the idea russia’s veto is unfair or undeserved, but somehow everyone else’s isn’t.
here’s a compromise, we get rid of all the vetos, and let the general assembly make binding decisions. surely the majority of the world’s population & nations would vote in support of Western Democratic interests
when i was looking for chronological comparisons the French apparently decriminalized sodomy in the Revolution, just like the Soviets, but didn’t ever reinstate it lol. in fact the Code Napoleon as it was promulgated to other states also decriminalized sodomy in other parts of europe, notably italy, western germany, and bavaria. germany re-banned it when unified (prussians)
this is not true. Cuba’s been ahead of the US consistently. LGBT rights are not a finish line labelled ‘gay marriage’; they decriminalized decades before the US.
and their recent reforms are constitutional, not protections subject to whims of courts or simple parliamentary majorities. Cuba didn’t roll over one day in the 2010s and suddenly decide ‘we’re pro lgbt now’, these efforts are built on decades of acceptance & reforms, that only recently became entrenched & certified to the highest legal standard.
no socialist society has had a good record regarding LGBT+ rights
Cuba does
no water—no piss.
why can’t you woke tankies understand this is what it takes to disrupt and innovate the marketplace? why do you hate progress?
meet up with my friends and say “wtf is the deal with this new policy”
i’d wear blue jeans and say fuck these assholes, and get to go home for a day off
looks like they got back a bit east of Kharkiv & to the north bank of the Dneipr—long before this last big ‘offensive’ tho. Russia might’ve given that pittance of territory up in a peace deal ooth.
Witwit and i’m sure many others is just tragic, Russia has awful drug laws & i’m sure being Iraqi contributed to his arrest/persecution, then the only chance to get out was to get murdered in Ukraine.
you’re only allowed to call the PRC “totalitarian” or undemocratic if you condemn the “democracies” of the english speaking world. the US president isn’t even the person who gets the most votes🤡
Taiwan does not “generally” have a stance against reunification, some independence parties are a bit more popular than they used to be, but them becoming a legally independent state requires vast constitutional and international changes no government has even begun to implement
